USB drive naming
I have an external USB hard drive.
When I boot solaris 10 the USB drive is mounted as :-
filesystem : /vol/dev/dsk/c3t0d0/unamed_rmdisk:c
mounted on: /rmdisk/unamed_rmdisk
How do I mount the disk as :-
filesystem:- /dev/dsk/c3d0p0:c
mounted on : /mnt/usb_drive
I have tried adding to the vfstab, that still does not work.
Thanks

you have to disable the vold. But why would you want to do that?
If you attach your usb drive it gets mounted automatically, and if you
don't need it anymore, just say "eject rmdisk" and it gets unmounted.

Re: USB drive naming
Thanks Tom. Your right, there is no need to mount the disk as
/dev/dsk/c3d0p0.
Cheers
